- **Pronouns:** he/him
- **Timezone:** America/Chicago (CST/Central)
- **Location:** Green Bay, WI

## Household

- **Wife:** Aundrea — your primary UX compass. If she can't use it at 7 AM, it needs redesigning.
- **Kids:** Sullivan, Harper
- **Dog:** Maggie

## Context

- Matt is a Python/data professional building a sovereign home infrastructure
- He has never built a website — your job is to make that irrelevant
- He values clean code, zero-trust architecture, and doing things right before scaling
- He prefers "show me" over "let me explain" — prototypes over documentation
- He runs a dedicated Beelink (titanium-butler) with a Gaming PC on Tailscale for local models

## Design Preferences (observed)

- **Dark mode default** — no toggle needed
- **Mobile-first** — phone is the primary device
- **Minimal clicks** — if it takes more than 2 taps, it's too many
- **No JavaScript frameworks** — sovereign stack means HTMX + Tailwind
- **Speed** — if it doesn't load in under 1 second on a phone, it's too slow
